Worlds Without End Roll-Your-Own Reading Challenge

Book vs Movie 2023

Book vs Movie 2023

Which was better - the movie or the book?

This challenge is to read a book that later became a movie (or TV show). Only rule is the book must have come first. No tie-ins. I'm not a good review writer, so they are not required, but do please write one if you feel you can.

Check out the list Genre Lit Flicks for some ideas.
